The planning for the Goa trip occurred accidentally. Three friends discussing about busy work life over tea, suddenly comes up with planning a much needed vacation. Within five minutes the plan was fixed and we were scheduled to leave next month. On 11th of August we reached Dabolim airport around 8.00 pm, and in a hurry booked a taxi to Palolem, south Goa. We reached Palolem beach around 10 pm. As soon as I stepped into the beach, I felt a feeling of satisfaction. After a short walk down the beach amidst complete silence,we checked in Cupid's Castle dropped our bags and headed to the beach for dinner. It was a tiring day and we dozed off.
The next morning I woke up early, and took a stroll along the beach. The waves lapping on the shore, the strong breeze, birds chirping together seemed to play a tune of their own. Far from the madding city crowd I stood on a place so calm and tranquil. The fishing boats were visible in the distance returning with their catch.
My friends joined me and by now, the sun has come up and the fishermen have returned with their catch. We decided to have breakfast and head out to travel around south Goa. We were fearing rain may spoil our day, but we were greeted with warm sunshine.
After a lot of bargaining we rented a car at affordable rate (note that August is off season), and left. Soon the sun was covered in clouds and it started to drizzle. Our driver Tulsi Das ji, made the ride even more interesting by talking about the culture and heritage of Goa and how Palolem beach, once unknown was discovered by the hippies. The drive through south Goa in the monsoons was really mesmerizing. The soothing greenery all around seem to appeal more that the beaches and you can feel so peaceful and relaxed.
